Description
Four hundred years ago, Samuel de Champlain built a fur trading post at a spot on the St. Lawrence River where the Algonquin people would come to fish and barter.
Kebec (where the river narrows) quickly became one of North America’s largest maritime cities. Today, its unique character as the only walled city on the continent continues to draw people from around the world.
This spectacular set is an irresistible tribute to Québec’s 400th anniversary. With its unique silver dollar, set against a stunning presentation of all of Canada’s traditional circulation coins in sterling silver (except the 1-cent and $1 coins) with a proof finish, it’s an incomparable historical tribute that will be a joy to collect – and receive!
